That's true, but you can only remember a fraction of the games played and most
of the games remembered revolve around the openings you play and the games
you've played before, I think. If a computer saves its experiences in a file,
then it would be able to create a database (experience) of its own. That would
be fair. However, there are a few problems with this, but they're manageable.

I believe that the so called "mind" of a computer program should be created from
experience as this is the closest thing to the way everyone learns to play
chess. Why should a computer program be allowed to skip learning all together?
The problem is that _all_ the auxiliary options is an advantage to the computer,
which should be obvious to everyone. Is it _really_ impossible to be unbiased if
you own a copy of Fritz?

Sincerely,
Mogens
